Historians in Trouble: Plagiarism, Fraud, and Politics in the Ivory Tower
A great overview of modern historical scholarship. Weiner explains, using a variety of recent examples, why some historians get away with lying, plagiarism and professional misconduct and others are brought down by concerted political interest. I'm not sure if this revitalizes the debate on tenure or 'ivory tower' politics as much as it does about the professionalization of history and the pitfalls of scholarship in the media age.
